You seem to not understand what 'trickle down' disparagingly refers to. The common contention with supply side economics isn't that savings == investment == growth, rather it is in regards to the implications of marginal tax rates on tax revenues.

If taxes are collected effectively, and offshore loopholes are closed aggressively, trickle down stops having any relationship to reality at all.
